My project....Finally some pics!!

[Roblee67]

Well, I've been hangin out here for about 3 months now trying to get ideas and absorb as much as I can listening to all the great info you all share but I haven't posted any pics of my build, so here we go....
I have been working seriously on this for about 6 months (although i have had this car for about 6 years!)...I dont have the budget of many of the other builds here but when I get done I will be happy as hell none the less!!

DSE mini tubs and leaf springs with relocators and 3" drop...Heidts front subframe with 2" drop, wilwoods all around, Q-a1 adjustable front coil overs...old-school 383 stroker roller motor, built by myself-should be about 500-520 hp to RW.....Edelbrock carb for mock up only, gonna go with a quick fuel or barry grant...getting ready to strip down and do some minor body work...fill marker lights, coat underside, etc...Will post more as I go.....

Nice project. Keep the pictures coming.

What color blue is that? Will that be the color of the car?

[Kendall Burleson]

Killer Project good job:bow: :bow:

[Roblee67]

Color is from 2007 nissan 350z...I have the numbers somewhere if you need them...Yes, the rest of the car will be that color, and I am thinking... some gun-metal gray racing stripes too!

[Roblee67]

The stock front subframe is for sale if anyone interested....blasted and fresh gunmetal grey paint...anyone know what I should ask??? I was thinking about $400 or so??

[Roblee67]

Thanks! I will post more pics as I go!

[Roblee67]

Can anyone tell me how much I should ask for the stock front sub frame from this car...?

[Roblee67]

been a while since update so here are a few pics for now...I decided to go with a 4-link rather than the leafs and got the new front subframe under it...also had to redo the firewall, the last guy was a crook (over 1/2 inch of bondo on the firewall and very poor welds...started cracking).... Anyway it is right this time!!!

Looking good Robert.
I like the blue color as well. Good luck with the build and keep us posted!:thumbsup:

Sounds and looks like it's going to be a great car! Keep posting the pictures. I love watching projects like this come together!

Robertlee --

I don't want to tell you how to do things - and I'm a complete amateur at most all of this stuff myself -- but -- when you're slinging that bondo around - make sure you've roughed the area with some 80 grit (at least) to give the bondo a place to bite into. Slick, flat, sheet metal needs to be clean clean clean and roughed up.

Sorry -- I just noticed it (bondo on what appears to be on sheet work with no apparent prep) in these shots of the firewall work and maybe I should keep my big yap shut....
